The Weapon Takers Saga Books 1-3

An Epic Fantasy Collection

De: Jamie Edmundson

Narrado por: Greg Patmore, Bridget Thomas

Dive in to the fantasy saga where a motley group of heroes must recover a stolen relic.

Twins Belwynn and Soren can communicate telepathically. They must lead a team of mercenaries, priests and exiles on a mission that becomes far darker and more important than they had bargained for. Perfect for fans of multi-character epics like Lord of the Rings and A Game of Thrones.

Praise for this series:

“If you’re a fan of great characters and plenty of action set in a well-developed fantasy world, then this is your series.”

“With interesting, well-fleshed out characters and a genuinely enthralling plot, this one really stood out for me.”

“Usually the author's writing links out a little for the next book or two, but not this guy, it stays right up there. You really need to get the rest of this series, you deserve it.”

Comprising books 1-3 of The Weapon Takers saga, this box set follows an epic quest for the seven weapons of Madria.

Soren, an ambitious wizard

Belwynn, his twin sister, who shares a telepathic link with him

Rabigar, an exile of the Krykker race

Elana, a mysterious priestess

Moneva, a killer with a dark past

And a host of mercenaries, sorcerers, knights, dukes, kings, and strange new races.

Who will lay claim to the weapons? Who can be trusted? And as war comes to Dalriya, who will take a stand against the dark forces that have been unleashed on the land?

Listeners have compared this series to The Wheel of Time, Lord of the Rings, The Belgariad, and A Game of Thrones.

“This quest to retrieve a stolen religious relic ticked so many of the boxes that got me into fantasy in the first place: an epic quest, a cast of diverse characters, swords and sorcery, otherworldly landscapes, strange creatures. Couple all this with a world which has a detailed history replete with political rifts, feuds and machinations, there is a lot going on. I especially liked the mix of characters, each bring their own skills and personalities to the party.” (CF Welburn, author of The Ashen Levels)

Hard to....

Hard to follow. I lost interest in the book after just a few chapters and I just couldn't follow the characters.

Great series 😁

Good story, engaging characters, fast-paced, a welcome addition to my audio library. Nice work! :)

Weapon finders!

Loved this series! The adventures, traveling around trying to find the weapons! The challenges the wars! Who will win! Find out! Narrators were amazing!

The story needs more....

It was hard to get started but before the end of chapter 2 I was into the story, but only because of the narrator. Greg Patmore is impressive with his voices. Jamie Edmunson does write a good story. I like a little more depth and dialog though. He gets to the battles quickly and ends them just as quickly. It just seems to be missing a little depth. Definitely does not keep you on the edge of your seat.

Definitely worth the credit!

Before you read further, please be aware that there's a book 4. This is an excellent series involving a huge cast of characters, a wide variety of "new" races, and plenty of plots and intrigue. It's a bit on the darker side of fantasy and a couple of brutal scenes in book 1 were reminiscent of Abercrombie. That said, at least one of those horrible events helped one character advance the plot and wasn't completely gratuitous. That scene in particular is mercifully short. The world-building is very nicely done, and the main characters display more than one dimension. There are loads of political intrigue as well, however the books don't get bogged down with them and the author throws a LOT of fight scenes in the mix. Like many others, it took a while to get used to the 2-narrator format, however both of them were very good. Greg Patmore in particular has an amazing arsenal of voices. I flew through this collection in 2 weeks and I started book 4 already. Don't wait like I did!

enjoyable story but it....

took me a long time to feel invested in the characters. female voicing leaves a lot to be desired, often flat and emotionless. male voicing often leaves too little to the imagination. good to listen to once... but I wouldn't give it a second run.

A well done presentation of a well crafted story.

Jamie Edmunson tells a very big tale, and Bridget Thomas and Greg Patmore breathe life into its telling. Good Stuff!

Top notch character and world development.

This series grabs and keeps your attention right from the start. I definitely going to be getting the 4th installmet. I HAVE to know how everything ends!

love the narration

the story is full of plot twist. I feel the narrators bring the story to life for the listener.

Excellent book

This was a very engaging story. I enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. The only problem i Had was remembering the names of the many characters. All in all I recommend this book.
